It is _exactly_ what my graph looked like when i was spinning the wheels. Doesn't necessarily mean massive power (well maybe for Melv but not for me) just poor alignment or strapping. The dyno calculates your power depending on your torque but Millenium Motorsport was explaining that all the new software can recognise the different gear and modify the output to be closer to 1:1.

We asked all the hard questions today at Gavin's....

3rd gear was because 4th puts too much load for too long on the engine. During a power run its probably fine to do, but when tuning you want to hold specific revs for a bit and its too much load to stay on in 4th. *gasp* At least, thats my dumbed-down understanding of what Gavin actually said, which had lots of complex words in them (most of them were more than 1 syllable so buggered if I could understand them) and scientific words like "torque" and "kilowatt" and Stuff :bonk:

Uhm and the blips are indeed caused by power transfering cause the Thing that measures g forces and Stuff and decides when to put drive to the front wheels gets all confused :headspin: cause the car is actually sitting still. Again, this is a dumbed down version for I am but a lowly fridgie and he is the almighty Running Bear Who Works On Skylines With Sitting Bull ;)

So yeah, I'll bet THAT clears it all up.... :looney:

krawler - dont know mate u will have to ask them.

it was done at DYNO SOURCE a 4wd dyno and was just be re-calabrated a week before hand.

gavin sayed another one of his gtrs made 617hp on a engine dyno and on the dyno source dyno it made 387hp@awhp

and that car has the works done to it with a HUGE single turbo.

wouldnt mind seeing what it would make on another dyno, prob another 60hp all depends on the dyno and how it reads.

Why dont you bring it to the dyno shoot-out at all star tuning on Saturday!!!!

I wouldn't trust her Melv.....

Me on the other hand? ........well lets just say they don't call me honest Chris for nothing and not only that, I will come and pick the car up for you, so you don't have to bring the keys to me like you do with Erin :(

    • Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.
    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
    • yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.
    • Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?
